There are some interesting stories about the resourcefulness of Sardarjis in Hong kong. The Sardarjis form a sizeable portion of the population there. Many of them belong to the second generation settlers' families. Their fathers had served the British army when Hong kong was under imperial rule. Some of them were also in the imperial constabulary .You can find them in old Chinese movies where they appear as instruments of repression .Nothwithstanding their association with the British brutality they have made a place for themselves in the history of Hong Kong. Today's Sardarjis have integrated themselves with the local Chinese population .Their children study in Chinese medium schools without any hassles.
A number of Sardarjis work as doormen at restaurants and nightclubs. They also work as valets for parking the cars of rich clients who just hand over the car keys to the valet who would take the cars to the nearby parking lot.It is believed that the clients are so munificent that they take out wads of dollar bills from their pockets and stuff them into the valet's palms without counting them.
